    I like it. The cars and their headlights, and the reflection of the sun and clouds on your SUV makes the shot more interesting. The sunset is also very beautiful. You framed it very well too. I drive an SUV, Duurago, this reminds me of driving mine. If you did this while driving you are also as skilled a driver as photographer.

    How on earth did you manage this?

    The photo is excellent but it disturbs me that you took it while driving.

    Re: Sun Set

    Just playing CSI a bit,

    San Fransisco, driving away from sunset, photo of right side mirror....

    I'd say it was a passenger shooting this photo. Unless it's totally the opposite and he lied about it being a sunset. He'd have to flip the photo horizontal then.

    Nice colors and framing. I'm trying to come up with a little constructive criticism and finding it hard. Maybe crop off the right side a bit, even try cropping right up to the edge of the mirror and see what that does.

    My words are escaping me. I wasn't driving, my wife was. I was close to San Francisco when I shot this. You've got some CSI skills.
